One Last Chance
Disclaimer: I don't own Labyrinth, although I wish I did.
Summary: It's been two years since Sarah traveled through the Labyrinth, and she finds her thinking about the one she never thought she'd fall in love with. J/S
Sarah sat in her room. It had been two years to the day since she traversed the Labyrinth, a day that would forever live in her memory as the day when she turned down the advances of her one true love Jareth, the Goblin King. Yes, Jareth had openly confessed his love for her that very same day that she had journeyed through the Labyrinth. She was too arrogant at the time to recognize it. It wasn't until a few weeks after the dreaded encounter that she realized her true feelings for him. She kept replaying the incident over and over, the thought haunting her. She truly loved her brother, but she desperately wanted to get together with Jareth.
She tried in vain to summon him every day to express her deep, true desire. She felt that by not answering he was trying to tease and torment her in the bowels of her very soul. In fact, it was the opposite. His feelings were the match of hers. He never came, but Sarah was too naive to realize one simple fact. He could only return if someone were to wish a child away. The only way he could come for her was if she wished herself away.
Jareth had been watching his new obsession every day, but Sarah was oblivious to the matter. He dreamt of her every night, and considered it a nightmare because he knew he was locked inside her charm and would never be freed like she had been. The reverse was also the same. Sarah dreamt of him every night, longing for the silkiness of his touch. She feared she might become insane If she weren't reunited with him soon. She thought the new fascination was one of obsession, but didn't realize that it was only the powerful stranglehold of love
A few days later she'd had enough. There was a 9mm pistol in the nightstand with a loaded clip beside it. She would attempt to make him come with a stellar plan. It was one of pure brilliance that came to her in the form of the common revelation. She would wish herself away rather than her baby brother. If it were to not work, she would take the pistol to her mouth and end her trouble once and for all!
